Chemistry now holds in English education is shown by its inclusion as a compulsory or at least an optional subject in almost all examinations preliminary to entrance on the learned professions, and by the fact that many of the best schools now possess well-equipped laboratories and give regular instruction in the elements of both Theoretical and Practical Chemistry. In directing the attention of our nation to the study of Chemistry as a means of scientific education, Sir Henry Roscoe has led the way. His text-books have given to generations of students their introduction to a knowledge of the science. His Primer of Chemistry and List of Experiments prepared for theS cience and Art Department contain the subject-matter which every schoolboy has till recent times been expected to know, every examiner has asked for, and few text-books have dared to disregard. The output of admirable text-books on these lines has during recent years been so abundant, that the issue of another would be unjustifiable, if it differed from them merely in detail and in unimportant features.
